Dua to recite when visiting the sick

Q: My ammi (mother) is admited in hospital for a long time and she is unconscious and drowsy. She can't speak and can't eat too. What should I recite when I visit her for her shifa?

A: Recite the following dua seven times.

أَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ الْعَظِيمَ رَبَّ الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِيمِ أَنْ يَشْفِيَكَ

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
